The Phoenix 2006 Album

Lyfe Jennings

The single, S.E.X., aside, this is a fairly boring album. Many of the songs go absolutely nowhere with the production not doing enough. There are warning signs from the jump with the Young Buck featured hip hop themed 'Slow Down' being quite a lackluster way to begin the album. 'Still Here' with Three 6 Mafia and Project Pat is a better rap featured song later on. 'The River' borrows from one of the greatest songs ever, 'A Change Is Gonna Come', so that's more than decent as well and 'Keep Ya Head Up' is a take on Pac's version but doesn't do it for me. Best Tracks: S.E.X., The River, I'll Always Love You
